"Emmet County Department of Public Works (Recycling & Waste): Lessons in Community: Composting through the Everyday and in Times of Crisis"See how Emmet County creates its homegrown compost at this site tour. Emmet collects over 600,000 pounds of food scraps per year through community drop offs and pick ups from local businesses, totaling over 4.7 million pounds since the program started in 2015.
Hear how Emmet County mobilized to support the community recovery from the April ice storm that damaged over 3 million trees in the region, and walk away with lessons for storm recovery.
